He couldn't see what the beast looked like.
It was surrounded by flames and just its claws were many times larger than Long Chen's body. In front of this beast, Long Chen was like a bug or an ant.
He truly understood what it felt like to be weak and powerless.
That terrible sense of defeat made his entire person sluggish.
"Why am I here? Am I dreaming?"
Long Chen couldn't help but tremble in front of the beast.
Just when he felt weak, the beast had already moved forward. When its claws landed on the ground, Long Chen realized that the entire ground was shaking and the space was being torn apart.
The beast's sky-covering head actually headed towards Long Chen. It seemed to have seen Long Chen.
"Crap."
Long Chen quickly turned to flee but he realized that he was actually so powerless. His speed wasn't even one ten-thousandth of the beast's. In the blink of an eye, the entire sky turned dark and was drowned in flames. A pair of terrifying eyes stared at Long Chen, causing Long Chen to lose all his strength and fall to the ground.
"You are too weak."
Rumble.
The beast's words were like thunder exploding in Long Chen's ears.
Long Chen didn't understand where this feeling of powerlessness and trembling came from. There was actually such a terrifying beast in this world. Just how big was it? Was it as big as Slaughter Dragon City or as big as a resplendent star?
Hu …
The gigantic beast exhaled and opened its mouth to inhale. A terrifying suction force acted on his body, and he was unable to resist it at all. In the blink of an eye, he was swallowed by the gigantic beast, and he was surrounded by pitch-black flames.
"Don't kill me."
Long Chen felt that the flames were moving towards him.
"Don't kill me."
Long Chen trembled.
The beast was too strong, many times stronger than him. It might be a true god or something even more terrifying than a god.
He was powerless to face it.
He began to feel guilty to his father for not being able to fulfill their wishes.
That kind of pain couldn't be described with words. In any case, pain, regret, defeat, and all the negative emotions engulfed Long Chen along with the ferocious flames.
Those flames were especially terrifying. As they burned, Long Chen gradually perished. More and more parts of his body began to no longer belong to him.
"Am I going to die?"
Long Chen felt his surroundings turn dark.
Before he could complete anything, he actually died.
Lingxi and Li Xuanji still needed his protection.
But he actually died …
He was ashamed to face everyone.
But there was nothing he could do. No matter how he roared or how he resisted, he couldn't escape from the burning flames. Today was the day of his death. He could only watch helplessly as his body gradually turned into powder and dissipated. To such a terrifying opponent, his weakness was simply a joke.
"I …"
His consciousness gradually blurred until it dissipated, and he fell into a long slumber …
"I'm dead …"
In the endless darkness, Long Chen lost his body. He had already realized this problem.
"Long Chen."
In a trance, he heard a familiar voice calling out to him.
It seemed to be Li Xuanji …
Long Chen remembered that she was also dead.
… … …
In reality, all of this was an attack from a dragonater.
For a Dragonswallowing Beast to obtain such a title, its devouring ability was undoubtedly top-notch. This Dragonswallowing Beast that Long Qinglan had sealed was far more powerful than the two Dragonswallowing Beasts that Long Chen had encountered before.
That was why it could defeat Long Chen.
At this moment, Long Chen's body was covered in a dense mass of phantasmal beasts. Inside and out, there were three layers of phantasmal beasts. Countless phantasmal beasts wriggled about, looking extremely terrifying and disgusting. Long Chen had already sunk to the deepest part of the dragonater's digestive fluid. His dragon scales were rapidly softening and decomposing. When Long Chen was completely corroded and devoured, Long Chen was basically done for.
But in his world, the phantasmal beasts had created the illusion that he was already dead.
"What delicious food. Not only did it lift the seal on me, but it also came to fill my stomach. Once I eat him, I'll go on a killing spree. That person is already dead, so I'm destined to eat very little. Haha, such delicious food."
The dragonater sank to the deepest part of the blood pool, its huge, round body rolling on the ground in satisfaction. As for Long Chen, he had already been defeated. It was only a matter of time before he was digested.
"Long Chen."
Li Xuanji was in Long Chen's body.
She was a Yin Demon and could walk freely in Long Chen's body. At this moment, she was using the power of the Yin Demon to protect Long Chen. However, the protection didn't seem to be that effective.
Li Xuanji was about to go crazy. If she wasn't in such a state, she would have cried long ago.
When she saw this teen, who was filled with fighting spirit, fall in front of her eyes, seeing him close to death, Li Xuanji realized that she actually felt so heart pained. Not only did she feel pained, but she was also filled with rage that made her want to go crazy. She called out in panic, but the phantasmal beast was too strong, and Long Chen was unable to wake up.
"Long Chen..."
Li Xuanji's heart was filled with pain. She loved Long Chen, deeply. When she saw the person she swore to protect die in front of her, it was even worse than killing him.
"No, I can't let this go on."
She started to think of a solution.
"Master, help me."
She hurriedly called out to that sleeping soul.
"Child..."
The slumbering soul awoke.
"Help me, I want to save him."
"The price is too huge. Your foundations are unstable, and you might not be able to take my power, causing your cultivation to regress by a lot. You might even become a mortal and lose your potential to become a god."
That sleeping soul said.
Li Xuanji didn't hesitate at all and said, "I want to save him. I won't regret it even if I die. Master, you understand me, so I can't hesitate. Help me quickly."
That person sighed and said helplessly, "Forget it, it is all fate, bad karma. For him to give you such a precious gift, today is your repayment."
When she heard this, Li Xuanji was delighted.
She broke free from Long Chen's body and formed her own body. At this moment, she broke through the encirclement of the phantasmal beasts, and a black needle appeared in her hand.
"Are you prepared to take on my power?"
Said the soul in the black needle.
Li Xuanji bit her lip, but she nodded without hesitation, her eyes full of determination.
The next moment, the surging power of the black needle rushed towards Li Xuanji's body. It was a terrifying power. In the blink of an eye, Li Xuanji's hair fluttered, and she was like a god descending to the world. The phantasmal beasts around her didn't dare to come forward.
"What is it?"
The Dragonswallowing Beast sensed the abnormality in its body.
At this moment, shrouded in black mist, Li Xuanji, who was surging with divine power, threw out the black needle in her hand. The black needle instantly pierced the body of the Dragonswallowing Beast.
The Dragonswallowing Beast let out a terrifying cry of pain.
Although the black divine needle was small, it was no small matter for it to be pierced like that. It was the power of an ancient god. In that instant, the Dragon Devouring Beast's internal organs twitched, and a huge force bombarded Long Chen and Li Xuanji's bodies.
Rumble.
This was the instinctive reaction of the Dragonswallowing Beast. It spat Li Xuanji and Long Chen out of its body, and the phantasmal beasts scattered.
When the phantasmal beasts left Long Chen's body, Long Chen finally recovered from the heavy blow.
The surroundings were chaotic.
"What's going on?"
Long Chen looked around blankly.
Before he was fully awake, the Dragonswallowing Beast spat him out. When his body rolled in the blood pool, he finally remembered everything when he saw the terrifying and ferocious Dragonswallowing Beast below.
So he didn't die at all.
But after soaking in the digestive fluid for so long, it was impossible not to feel pain.
"Damn it, don't try to run. Be my food."
The Dragonswallowing Beast roared and bit again. Long Chen fell for it the first time, but he wouldn't fall for it the second time. He instantly rushed out of the blood pool and went outside. At this time, the Dragonswallowing Beast also came out fiercely. Its meatball-like body was exposed in the air, and its huge mouth was extremely disgusting.
"Damn it."
The terrifying experience just now was still fresh in his mind.
Right, why did he spit it out?
Long Chen remembered that he seemed to have heard Li Xuanji's figure.
At this time, he seemed to feel that Li Xuanji was not in his body. He looked back and saw that she was floating beside him, covered in mist. Her power was many times stronger than before, and there was even the power of a real god circulating around her.
"How dare you stab me."
The meat in its stomach flew away just like that. The Dragonswallowing Beast became very angry. Its huge body slammed towards Long Chen, trying to swallow Long Chen again. At the same time, its attack was also aimed at Li Xuanji.
"Let's work together and kill him first."
Li Xuanji said.
Finally, Long Chen escaped death.
No matter what price she had to pay, she felt that it was worth it.
At that moment, she really thought that she was going to lose him. It was such a painful feeling that she couldn't breathe.
Fortunately, he came back to life.
What Long Chen couldn't see was that at this moment, there were two streams of tears in her eyes.
He roughly guessed that Li Xuan's ability becoming so strong had something to do with her master. Now that she was using her master's power, it was impossible to merge with it. However, this Dragonswallowing Beast definitely couldn't be released. Long Chen quickly adjusted himself to battle mode. When he thought about how he was killed by this thing, his heart was filled with anger.
"Don't go, my food."
The Dragonswallowing Beast said arrogantly.
Long Chen gritted his teeth.
"Fourteenth sacrifice."
Dragon tooth, dragon claw.
On the dragon tooth, there was Sun Sacrifice. The huge fireball was like a real sun.
On the dragon claw, there was Moon Sacrifice, Star Sacrifice, Flame Sacrifice, and Storm Sacrifice.
The power of these five instantly expanded to the same level as Long Chen's body.
"Explode."
